Shoreditch Library
80 Hoxton Street, N1 6LP
London
Entry to this event is FREE.
Come and see a library like you have never seen it before! Watch the books as they watch you, while actors, dancers, musicians and artists make their own journeys, finding their way around their surreal house of words... Sit down, walk around, get as close as you wish to the action, as every corner you turn reveals a new surprise and if you are feeling brave - join in!
A 60 minute performance in Shoreditch Library, featuring more than 50 musicians, actors, singers, rappers, performance/sound/installation artists, exhibitionists, bands and ensembles - all performing at the same time! Also featuring work by several American artists who have created pieces to be given away to the audience. There will be plenty to do: events and new poetry will be available for you to read, or you can just sit back and read the books already in the library, watch the live simultaneous performances, absorb the visual art, take part - enjoy yourself!

l reed & b yianni / world premier / fourth plinth / trafalgar square / london / 13th july / 2009
Acrophobia, from the Greek ’akron’ (peak) and ’phobos’ (fear) is a fear of heights and is extremely common. It is now widely believed that fear of height is a response we are all born with and is an evolutionary adaptation. Mild suffers like myself will experience rising heart rate, a knot in the stomach, sweaty palms and inertia.
the composition ’the ebb of acrophobia’ is an attempt to reflect the state of mind and physical condition of the living sculpture on the plinth and, through score, signals and improvisation interpret his changing state / the outcome is largely unknown

The Fourth Plinth
From 6 July 2009 the Fourth Plinth in the north west of Trafalgar Square is home to Antony Gormley’s One & Other, an astonishing living monument. He is asking the people of the UK to occupy the empty Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square, a space normally reserved for statues of Kings and Generals, in an image of themselves, and a representation of the whole of humanity.
The plinth is being occupied by different people every hour, 24 hours a day, for 100 days.
See it live

The Great Learning
11/07/2009
I’ll be performing in that event. All The Great Learning of Cornelius Cardew
Performance: 11th July 2009, Leytonstone Festival
The Great Learning is a piece of music written by Cornelius Cardew in the late 60’s and early 70’s. It features performers who have little or no musical training, in an attempt to free the music from the preconceptions and habits of conventionally trained players. The Great Learning draws on text from the Confucian book of the same name, which is recited and sung at regular intervals throughout the piece. When performed in its entirety the piece is very long (6 1/2 hours in total), broken down into 7 separate sections or Paragraphs.

This video is a very small taste of a complete performance of Cornelius Cardew’s 6 1/2 hour composition, The Great Learning. The performance took place on July 11th 2009 as part of the Leytonstone Festival. For more information, and complete audio recordings of the performance, see the website: http://www.insearchofsilence.co.uk/greatlearning.
